Summer
From tiny caterpillars to ....very hungry caterpillars to....beautiful butterflies.... we have followed their journey with huge excitement and anticipation. Yesterday we released our butterflies but first we had the chance to hold them (if we wanted to)... before waving them off into the beautiful blue skies above! From a teaching point of view, this experience for the children has been priceless. Watching them check-in with them every morning, talk to the butterflies, encourage the little one that got stuck in its cocoon and then say a prayer that it would go to 'Pet Heaven.'So much more than just 'The life cycle of a Butterfly' has been gained from this exciting experience.
We had lots of fun today celebrating the 80th Anniversary of VE Day. Our day began with an assembly telling us all about why we were celebrating. We then made flags and coloured pictures in the classroom.
